Del Friscos Double Eagle Steakhouse - Philadelphia (PA)

3 /5 sisocial social: This was our first visit to this restaurant. Its a spacious restaurant with history. Service was good, not exceptional for the price. Limited restroom: we had to wait in line to use the small mediocre decorated bathroom. Food was not exceptional compared to a chain steakhouse such as Longhorns. Disappointed with the breads, appetizers and steaks. Amazed by the tall wine tower. I would recommend to visit for cocktails or drinks.

4 /5 DBradshaw25: Early reservation on a Saturday. Jessica our server was excellent! Asked questions regarding dietary restrictions and helped us navigate the menu. The London Maid was a pretty good cocktail; light and refreshing. Blood Orange Spritz was also enjoyable. Bacon appetizer was delicious and peppery! Wedge salad was good but seemed a bit small. Chicken entree was really delicious but thought it was better without the sauce that was provided on the side. Salmon was excellent! Chateau potatoes were a bit too peppery for us but the flavor was good. Dont get me wrong, I like pepper but this was pretty peppery. Orange Creme brulee was incredibly unusual but was quite delicious! We were impressed! It should be noted that the gluten sensitive menu wasnt accurate because we were told the berries and creme wasnt gluten free even though it was on the gluten sensitive menu; the creme brulee was gluten free (without the cookie on top) but it wasnt listed as an option. Strange. Finally, the worst part of the experience: it was cold in the restaurant, so I put on a light jacket that happened to have a hood on it. I was leaving the restaurant and I was accosted by the security guy who told me hoodies were not allowed in the restaurant. Was totally not necessary to engage with me on that because I was literally leaving! To me , a "hoodie" is an athletic wear sweatshirt and this was a light jacket that happened to have a hood on it. If you dont want any hooded attire in the establishment, thats fine (good luck in the winter!) but I think you should clarify that in your dress code to specify no hooded clothing period. Thanks!

4 /5 Tom E: Met the GM when we walked in letting her know we were celebrating our anniversary as well as one of the floor managers. They took good care of us with server team pictured. Shrimp cocktail perfect as expected in a fine steakhouse. Crab meat cocktail was tasty. Caesar salad superb. The porterhouse was cooked as ordered, wonderfully tender and well seasoned. Disappointed only lobster tails available were baby in size despite being on menu. Au gratin potatoes were cheesy good but more mashed than whole. Asparagus was great. Old fashioneds were solid. Restaurant is huge in size, three stories, looks like old bank building. The yacht rock music playing loudly was off putting as my video clip shows. Pay a jazz band to play live for a better vibe that fits the location.

5 /5 Kara K.: Loved the ambience as soon as we stepped in. Didn’t make reservations but was able to find a seat at the bar with no issue. This is a repurposed bank. Vibes were nice. Service was very friendly, food was good. Husband enjoyed his ribeye, and I loved the burrata salad. Good wine list and drink selection. Would return

5 /5 Jennifer Hartley: Ben should get 10 stars for his service. He greeted our table right away and was attentive throughout the entire meal. Ben not only knew alot about the menu and wine, he also pointed out interesting things about the building and history of the building. Our meal was wonderful. I gave it 4/5 because my steak was over-cooked on the surf & turf. It still tasted good and the trio was over the top good. Lovely atmosphere! Thank you for making my birthday a special occasion! I would definitely ask for Ben when booking your table reservation!
